That is one awesome track! Nice pool and mowing stripes too! Strangely, I still run the Evader Brushless/EXT2 rims with my Proline Badlands and haven't had a problem. As you know Rob, I drive it hard! lol Are you running music wire wheel pins or stock spring pins?

Those Step Pin tires have so much grip and the stress put on the Duratrax rims was too great. I have no LHS to run to and grab parts from. I have have two sets of rear Duratrax rims to use up before I try some Losi rims I just ordered.
I can't believe I just spent two hours of my life ungluing tires from rims. 'Never had to do that ever... until... Duratrax meets brushless motor.
I'm gonna try to keep my ST running as long as parts are still being made. The Duratrax ST is my relaxation tool (making dirt/dust fly) after work I run the ST Pro on my track I built beside my house. I gave up racing, but when I did, I always liked to run what the other guys didn't. Back in the day I raced a Traxxas Blue Eagle truck against converted RC10s then I had a Traxxas TCP buggy going up against RC10s and a field of Losi buggies.
